Clinical Counseling I am working on a school guidance master's degree and this book explains the different theries of counseling better than any of the other texts that I have read for my course work.
User friendly. One textbook you're liable to keep. Interviewing textbooks are notoriously dry and mechanical. I can count using the fingers of one hand the number of books I have read on the subject that are worth their weight in cotton candy.
This work by the Sommers-Flanagan duo represents an excellent addition to the instructional literature on the fine art of interviewing. They use an wonderful blend of humor, humanity, sound advice and counsel, and theory.
